Fight the Giants

  Chapter 54 If not successful

  Huo Xi showed him the bank note: "This is one hundred taels. I only have these."

   said again: "Don't worry, the source of the banknotes is clean. We are not a family without the slightest family background."

  Huo Zhong glanced at it, but didn't speak. When you do business, you pay both money and goods, and who has the time to control how you get your bank notes? That's what the yamen should worry about.

  He just nodded without speaking, and turned to count the amount of cloth on the cart.

  Huo Xi put away the bank notes and gold beans and silver beans. Also follow behind and count silently.

   "There are fifty-eight horses in total. I will make the decision, and I will only charge you one hundred taels and three golden beans."

  Huo Xi frowned, three golden beans, three taels of gold, is thirty taels of silver, the cost of that one... is more than two taels of money.

   This price is still far from her reserve price.

Seeing that she was thinking about it, Huo Zhong said: "This is already the lowest price. I wouldn't sell it at this price. I just ship it back to the embroidery shop and let them cut it down and embroider it into embroidery products for sale, not only at this price .”

   But in business, credibility is the most important thing. If other companies know that they have cut and sold embroidery from flawed cloth, I am afraid that they will lose business from high-profile households. The loss outweighs the gain.

  Huo Xi frowned and thought about several options, as well as the worst possible outcome.

  He looked up at him: "I didn't see the other cloth. Is the damage area similar to that of the cloth just now? If it's worse, I don't think it's worth it."

  Huo Zhong smiled: "Don't worry, they are all about the same. If there is too much damage, you can take it back when the time comes, and I will return your money."

   Huo Xi gritted his teeth, let's give it a try. How can one only think about making money and not take risks when doing business.

   Then he said to him: "That's fine. Then I want it all."

  When Yang Fu heard this, his internal organs tightened. Opening and closing his mouth, he wanted to hold Huo Xi several times, but he was afraid of ruining her affairs, his heart was as fried.

   One hundred taels, and three golden beans.

   That's not a penny or a tael, it's one hundred and thirty taels! Without batting an eye, Xi'er bought that cartload of moldy expensive cloth.

   Ouch, I don’t know if his sister and brother-in-law would faint from fright if they knew about it.

  Help it, you must hide it! You can't tell them that Xi'er bought it with her own money.

   Or, say that the two of them picked up a hundred taels in the city, and bought these silks because they were cheap? Anyway, money is also picked up?

   But would his sister and brother-in-law believe it?

   Oops, what can I do. Yang Fu's mind was in a mess, and he couldn't figure it out. Anxious in my heart.

   Waiting until Huo Xi and Huo Zhong had handed over and let the two young men push the cart to take them to the ferry in the outer city, Yang Fu followed behind in a daze, unable to recover.

   Seeing that he was about to reach the ferry, he hurriedly grabbed Huo Xi and whispered: "Xi'er, there are so many cloths, how can I explain to your parents? Or, just say that we picked up money in the city?"

Huo Xi had already dealt with it all the way, and whispered to him: "Let's just say that we have a good relationship with Guanshi Huo and know that I have a way to get rid of these mildew spots. Divide the money."

   Ah, can it still be like this? Yang Fu was stunned.

   Thinking about it again, this way is better than picking up the money he thought.

  Nodding again and again: "Okay. That's good." He breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to hide it from his sister and brother-in-law, but he didn't want them to worry about Xi'er either.

   Waiting for Huo Erhuai and Yang Shi to come to pick them up by boat, they saw a cart of cloth, and they didn't recover for a long time.

  Until the cloth was loaded onto the boat, the two servants from Huo’s house pushed the cart away, and the couple still looked like their jaws had dropped to the ground and they couldn’t close.

   "God, this is silk cloth, not hemp!"

   These two children, have eaten the bear heart and leopard gall? Selling such expensive cloth!

  Mr. Yang stared straight at her eyes: "Where did the two of you get the money?"

  Huo Erhuai's hands were trembling, he couldn't rock the boat, looked at this, then looked at that, he couldn't regain his senses.

  Huo Xi pushed Yang Fu to rock the boat, pulled his husband and wife to sit in the stern, and told them what he had just told Yang Fu.

   "No money? Let us help with it first? There are so many servants in the Huo family, so they can't handle it?"

   "It's not impossible to deal with it, but only I have a way to remove the mold, and they don't have it."

   "Then you didn't tell him?"

   "Sister, you are stupid, this is a secret technique, who is willing to tell others! They don't spend money to buy it!"

  Mr. Yang came back to her senses and nodded again and again: "Yes, I said something wrong. Xi'er, do you really have a way to get rid of mold?"

  Huo Xi shook his head: "There are a few ways, but I haven't tried them. I can't be sure. I have to try."

   "What if it doesn't work?" Huo Erhuai was a little nervous.

  He had never worn silk clothes in his life, and he didn't even dare to look at the nobles wearing silk clothes. But his daughter brought back a boat full of silk today!

  Although there are mildew spots, it is still silk! God. It really opened his eyes.

   "Don't worry if you don't succeed. Anyway, we don't spend money." Huo Xi is a bit of a bachelor anyway, and he believes the lies he made up. Anyway, it was sent to me for testing for nothing.

  Yang Fu glanced at her, seeing that she happened to be looking over, he hurriedly looked away. That's right, they didn't spend a penny, they were sent for them to try, and it doesn't matter if they try it, and they will share the money together after making money.

   How nice. Right, that is it.

   Seeing the sincerity of the two of them, Mrs. Yang believed it.

  If Xi'er really has a way to get rid of these mildew spots, oh my god, how much does it cost to sell so much silk! Even if you split them half and ten, you can still get a lot of money!

   He grabbed Huo Xi's hand very nervously: "Xi'er, tell me what to do, mother will help you!" Without blinking, she just stared at her.

  Huo Xi patted her reassuringly: "Mom, you scoop out some rice first, and wash out the rice water. Let's soak the rice water first."

   "Just soak in rice water?" So simple?

   "Of course it's more than that. When Dad goes to the city to sell fish tomorrow and buys some things for me, we'll try all kinds of methods."

Huo Erhuai nodded straight: "All right, what do you want to buy, tell dad, dad will buy it for you tomorrow." Huo Erhuai looked at the cloth in the cabin, thinking that if he could get rid of these mildew spots, his family would be able to share them. How much. My heart couldn't help but feel hot.

   At that time, you will be able to earn money for renting a house in the city in winter, right?

  The whole family didn’t even bother to make dinner, they washed basins, washed rice, and soaked.

  Huo Xi got into his cabin, wrote and drew, wrote down all the ways to remove stains and mildew in his previous life, and thought about the things he had to prepare.

  There is no special cleaning agent for clothes, so I have to make it in my own way.

  She knows how to extract alcohol using the local method of baijiu, but she doesn't have an instrument, even if she barely extracts it, she can't test the alcohol concentration.

  So using alcohol to remove it will not work.

   listed several options.

   Until I fell asleep, I was still thinking about this matter in my mind, and I was wrapped in various silk cloths in my dreams.

   I checked the content I uploaded in the previous chapter yesterday, and found that some words were blocked, so I hurried to check it in the background. I can't help but laugh at this, "I want to make some other food items, such as dried shrimps", and the item and ratio are blocked even if they are connected together.
